Zusammenfassung:	"Oil, Islam Conflict is a timely regional perspective that gathers together and analyzes a range of issues, including terrorism, counter-insurgency and energy security. It covers the civil Wars in Afghanistan and Tajikstan, the conflicts in Chechnya and the Caucasus, and terrorism across the region. Rob Johnson also examines the policies of Central Asian governments, including their attitudes to democratic reform, human rights, energy and economic development, and how these are related to civil violence. Further consideration is given to Islamist movements and their impact on the peoples of Central Asia, as well as the unrest in China's Xinjiang province." "Required reading for policy planners and researchers, oil and gas companies, military personnel and others involved in energy security and combating terrorism, Oil, Islam and Conflict will also attract general readers with an interest in this increasingly turbulent region."--BOOK JACKET.
